part a

The ideas that are repeated throughout the text are Mortality, because of how easily it is to die in war, futility, because of how pointless war it, and equality, because that's what they are fighting for. The theme of "An Episode of War" is that war will kill people, even innocent ones.

part b

I say this because a man was shot, no in combat, but just drinking an ordinary cup of coffee.

part c [my answer]

The theme of this story is that war destroys everything. It is shown through the deaths, fear, and pain it causes these soldiers. One example of this theme is a soldier being killed while drinking a cup of coffee. This shows how war kills innocent people, or vulnerable people. The lieutenant with the wound not only had to go through the pain of being shot, but also the fear of being amputated. After his arm was amputated, he went home and had to heal not only physically from war and the wound, but mentally from the stress and pain of it all.

part c [sample answer]

Your answer may include these points:

the setting of the story

the historical elements that the author uses to describe the scene at the battleground and the field hospital

the attitude of the caregivers towards the injured, and the doctor’s hasty decision to amputate the lieutenant’s arm

Crane’s use of a realistic setting and historical elements contribute to the theme of this story. Crane provides graphic descriptions of the wounded lieutenant, the battlefield, the field hospital, and the unsympathetic surgeon. From these details, the reader can infer that the theme of “An Episode of War” is the absurdity of war and the unpredictable horrors it inflicts on helpless people. In this story, a sniper hit results in a lieutenant losing his arm. At the end of the story, he dismisses the amputation of his arm as a trivial incident compared to the more severe injuries of other soldiers.
